I am not here to judge you at all. You are in a very difficult and fragile situation and an abortion seems like the easiest alternative. Yet I would think very carefully about getting an abortion, not because some rude protestors tried to lay a guilt trip on you, but if you are pregnant you are carrying a human life that will become a human being. All life is precious.
My mother told me that my father wanted her to get an abortion when she was pregnant with me. If she had , I would not have been born. I thank God everyday that she refused and had me. Yes my father was abusive, but I survived and have lived a productive life. I even had a daughter of my own who, while challenging, has also brought me great joy.
Pregnancy changes things but it is not the end. Giving the child for adoption into a loving family is a live option.
All the women I have ever known who have had abortions have told me that if they could do things over. They would have are a different choice.
Again I do not mean to preach at you at all. I really do care and have a lot of empathy for what you are facing. It is not my place to tell you what to do at all. Just that there are major emotional consequences that come with having an abortion, and at least for me there is a better way

Love and hugs
